HIGHLIGHTS

Google Stadia is launching on November 19.

It will launch in 14 countries. India is not one of them.

Only those that ordered the Stadia Founders or Premiere Edition will have access to the service.

Let’s face it, every time a gaming console launches, the launch line-up isn’t stellar. The same is the case with Stadia. The game streaming service was said to launch with more than 30 games but on launch day, there will be only 12 games playable. The launch lineup includes Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey, Destiny 2: The Collection, Gylt, Just Dance 2020, Kine, Mortal Kombat 11, Red Dead Redemption 2, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Samurai Shodown, Shadow of the Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition, Thumper and Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition. 

There is some good news as well. Google says that there will be more games available before the year ends. This will include Attack on Titan 2: Final Battle, Borderlands 3, Darksiders: Genesis, Dragonball Xenoverse 2, Farming Simulator 19, Final Fantasy XV, Football Manager 2020, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, Grid, Metro Exodus, NBA 2K20, Rage 2, Trials Rising and the not-so-impressive Wolfenstein: Youngblood

Chances are you’ve already played most of these games as they have been available on the PC, PS4 and Xbox One for sometime now. What will be interesting to see is the price of these games. No one would pay $60 (Rs 4000 approx.) for these games so it is possible that there will be available at a lower price. Darksiders: Genesis will launch on all the platforms on December 5.  

In the history of video games, only a few consoles have had a stellar launch line-up. It is safe to say that with these games, Stadia will cater to the first movers and test the waters to fix any known issues before releasing a game like Doom Eternal on the service, which clearly needs a lag-free experience.

Those interested must know that India isn’t on the launch line-up of countries. We have an in-depth look at everything about Stadia and you can check it out here. You can also read about Stadia compatible devices here.
